Vegas and Multibridge Extreme: Drivers
I have a DecklinkHD card with the old 4.8.1 drivers installed for Vegas 6 compatibility..
I just purchased a Multibridge Extreme, but the drivers for it overwrite the old 4.8.1 drivers with newer 5.3 drivers..
If I try to install the old drivers over the newer drivers, it won’t let me do it (“The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation”)..
How can I use the Multibridge Extreme as a converter for my Decklink HD?

The only way I’ve gotten it to work is to install the Multibridge Extreme drivers on a notebook computer to control the MbE, and only have the desktop drivers installed on the computer with the Decklink HD card..
I’m waiting for my Dell24″ monitor to come in, so I don’t have a DVI display yet.. Is there another way to monitor a live feed? For instance, we have a Sony Z1 hooked up to the MbE via analog component.. I am capturing via Vegas 6.. Can I route the live signal to the analog component out so we can check focus and life picture on set? Or do we have to wait for the DVI monitor?

I just got the Dell 24″ and it is pretty incredible, It’s got a usb hub and card reader which I wasn’t expecting, not to mention it’s big bright and cheap. Now if only I could get my Multibridge to work. I’ve had it since Christmas and haven’t been able to properly install it yet without crashing, system freezes while installing decklink.sys into system32\drivers folder. BMD in Australia has been working with me to get it going for the last week, but for now we are going to RMA it. Hopefully won’t take too long and that will sort things out.

Well, my MBE _SEEMS_ to be working.. Although I was hoping I could route more in/out than I seem to be able to.. For instance, let my DecklinkHD downconvert on the fly my live signal, pass that back into the MBE into SDI channel 2, then route that out of the MBE’s NTSC composite.. But apparently, no can do..
Right now I can only see live picture via the Capture utility in vegas, then drag that to the timeline to see it on the preview monitor..
